Popis: Abstract Utilizing livestock manure as organic fertilizer in sustainable agriculture is crucial and should be developed through an appropriate manufacturing process. Solid–liquid separation contributes to reducing odor, managing nutrients in livestock excretions, and lowering the cost of transporting manure to arable soil. To investigate the impact of fermentation after solid–liquid separation, we examined the specific correlation between chemical properties and bacterial communities in solid–liquid manures before and after the fermentation process. In terms of chemical properties before fermentation, the levels of electrical conductivity, nitrogen, ammonium nitrogen (NH4 +-N), potassium, sodium, and chloride were higher in the liquid sample than in the solid sample. However, the chemical components of the liquid sample decreased during fermentation, which could be attributed to the low organic matter content. Many chemical components increased in the solid samples during fermentation. Fifty-six bacterial species were significantly correlated with NH4 +-N and phosphorus. Following fermentation, their abundance increased in the solid samples and decreased in the liquid samples, indicating the potential for NH4 +-N release or phosphorus mineralization from organic matter. These results provide information regarding changes in nutrient and bacterial formation when applying the fermentation process after solid–liquid separation.
